Ignition trouble

The problem was observed today when I was checking the timing.

I had only strobed the timing on the starter before, but today i strobed it on idle. Firmware: 1.0.36 and also 1.0.23 was tried with the same result. I'm using dualout and highboost. The actually timing is totally of the timing value set in MT. I also checked if had ant trigger errors on lcd page 2, but didn't.

Result with trigger tooth=4 and TDC after trigger=61

Result with trigger tooth=5 and TDC after trigger=64

This test was on idle @1000rpm +-/40, @45KPa. The timing fluctate +-1 degree. Would appreciate if someone could help me with this weird problem.

Andreas, as soon as I woke up I remembered that you rune false waste fire ignition with COP coils. The timing light you are using assumes that you have 720 degrees between each spark and as you only have 360 degrees between each spark you will have to divide the advance number in the timing lights display by two to get the right value. This means that your initial trigger settings was correct. -Jörgen
